Table Differences in Firefox and Safari

[rlowe82]

Hey everyone,

When I create tables in Dreamweaver and preview them in Safari, they appear exactly as I want them to. When I preview them in Firefox, they retain none of the attributes I set for them, such as border color or background color. Why would this be?

I'm using Mac OS X 10.4.8.

Thanks!

How are you specifying those attributes?

I'm setting the attributes in the formatting box of Dreamweaver, where you can select PAGE PROPERTIES, FONT, SIZE, etc...

bordercolor is a Microsoft IE proprietary tag that apparently was never adopted across the board.
You should use border-color in css, because netscape / firefox / mozilla probably won't use what you have now.

Okay, thanks. I've never used border color in CSS. I'll look into it.

Hi everybody!!!!

I am using dreamweaver 8 to create a webpage. I have started working to my laptop that has a 17 inch screen and when I tested the site in a 15 inch screen the page was no longer centralized. Also, the borders of the page did not seem to be the same when testing the page in firefox and in internet explorer.

I was wondering if there is any way to keep stable the borders of the page no matter the browser.
